Quiet Sunday morning in the wake of a wake. May we all be blessed by such excellent friends!

It’s Saturday night, we’re finally feeling better, & what’s our ideal activity? Sitting in the living room listening to Mel Torme. Really.
Without seeing my tweet, Joe impulsively switches to The New Pornographers. I love my eclectic sweetheart!
Double blargh
Warning: this cold that’s going around is a doozy. Commence evasive action: frequent handwashing, waving instead of hugging, etc.
sweet relief
Fellow cold/scratchy throat sufferers! Take an orange & put it in the fridge for at least 30 minutes. Cut into 8ths. Eat the cold tart bliss
Blargh
Turns out even freelancers have a boss that drops surprise projects. New plan: work on this slight fever, weakness, & scratchy throat.
Not by any stretch actually an early morning person
Mercifully, “morning of Joe’s 5am alarm” & “morning of pre-6am start of helicopter noise” coinciding. Wouldn’t want this for days in a row.

Tying off loose ends before launch
Today I'm proofing the print version of my book Discardia: More Life, Less Stuff in hopes of being able to approve it for sale.
I'm still hoping Apple will come through with activating the ebook for purchase through iTunes/iBookstore, but it's starting to look as though I may have to launch without it there. Bit baffling since I uploaded it over nine days ago, but I've written to support and am hopeful that will shake it loose from wherever its stalled out in the review process. Seems to be a side effect of their quality control for new books and apps and I know I'm far from the first content creator to be impatiently reloading that status screen.
Amazon has obligingly reactivated their Associates program just in time for me to use those links and make a little extra per copy. (MetaGrrrl.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. There. That's that participation requirement covered.)
Hey ho, the glamorous life.
